Chapter 555: Naming Jiang Ying

From Blood Robe, Jiang Yun had already learned that the best way to use any Demon Refining Technique is with a Demon Refining Pen to fully unleash its power.

When in the Qing-zhu Desolate World, Blood Robe was planning to give Jiang Yun a piece of parasol wood to use as material for making a Demon Refining Pen, but Jiang Yun refused.

Because he had a better material in mind, the Against-Demon Bridge from the Luo family!

It was a bone of the Taoist Demon Hun Tian, just like the material for his Demon Refining Pen from the Lu family!

Initially, Bai Ze suggested merging the two materials, but now it seemed better to use the Against-Demon Bridge as material to create his own Demon Refining Pen.

As for the method of opening the apertures, naturally, it should be done with the Demon Refining Pen, using demonic energy and his own blood as ink, drawing a demonic pattern on the chosen object to form the aperture!

Of course, not everything can turn into a monster just by practicing magic. They must have intelligence first.

It also requires adding the Demon Refiner’s own blood, which is a burden for them to help everything develop intelligence and become a monster.

Usually, the Demon Refiner cannot help everything develop intelligence and become a monster easily.

But now, Jiang Yun felt that the shadow in front of him not only had intelligence but also had the Demon Sealing Seal marked inside it, which gave him a bold idea.

"If it can become a monster, embark on the path of cultivation, then it will become the strongest among all shadows, even their leader!"

"The body of the Shadow Spirit Realm Beast is vast and boundless. I can never explore it on my own, but these shadows are endless, even spreading everywhere."

"If they can be driven and controlled, then I can not only learn more secrets inside the Shadow Spirit Realm Beast but also have them help me find more black stones."

Although Jiang Yun has no idea what the black stones are, he still wants to completely restore them.

Only then can he possibly understand the dream he had!

"Perhaps in the future, I may find another way to enter the Shadow Spirit Realm Beast."

After making up his mind, Jiang Yun bit his finger, letting a lot of energy flow into his fingertip. With his blood, he started drawing nine patterns on the shadow in front of him using a special pen!

This was the first time in Jiang Yun’s life that he helped a creature open nine patterns, and he wasn’t very familiar with the special pen. Drawing these patterns was not like drawing on paper where mistakes can be easily fixed.

Once the patterns were drawn with the special pen, there was no way to change them.

So, Jiang Yun took his time to be careful.

Luckily, the shadow contained a Demon Sealing Seal which was very obedient. It took nearly half a day of patient work for Jiang Yun to finally succeed.

Even though there were nine patterns, no one else could see them.

All they could see were nine strange red symbols on the shadow’s black body.

After taking a deep breath and spitting out some blood, Jiang Yun confidently placed his hand on the shadow in front of him. He declared loudly, "Today, as a Demon Refiner, I will help you become a spirit creature!"

As Jiang Yun spoke, a gentle breeze suddenly rose on the deserted path, carrying an eerie aura.

The fresh blood emitted by Jiang Yun was absorbed by the shadow, transforming into countless red blood drops that gradually disappeared.

At that moment, nine red demonic patterns on the shadow’s body began to rotate slowly, exuding a hint of eerie aura as they seeped out from the shadow’s form.

"Buzz!"

Following that, the shadow’s body trembled violently, the rotation of the demonic patterns speeding up until they transformed into eyes, ears, and a mouth…

The shadow’s originally formless body began to contort and change, gradually developing limbs, a head, and facial features!

When Jiang Yun saw the facial features of the shadow, he furrowed his brow slightly, noticing the striking similarity to his own.

Jiang Yun was not surprised by this!

After possessing the nine apertures, a complete form was necessary, whether that be in the form of an animal or a human, entirely dependent on the shadow’s own will.

So, when faced with Jiang Yun, choosing to imitate Jiang Yun’s appearance and body was quite normal, just that Jiang Yun was a bit uncomfortable with it.

Finally, the shadow in front of him turned into a young man almost identical to Jiang Yun, the only difference being that his body was still pitch black, and he had no abilities.

In the next moment, the shadow opened its eyes, rolled them a few times, then directly knelt down in front of Jiang Yun, showing respect, and spoke, "Thank you, sir, please give me a name!"

For most humans, a name is just a label, a symbol, but for demons who have just transitioned into the demon race, it symbolizes recognition, existence.

Blood Robe had already informed Jiang Yun about this, so Jiang Yun nodded and said, "My surname is Jiang, so you can take on my surname too!"

"Although I don’t know which clan you belong to, since your original form is a shadow, I’ll name you Shadow, Jiang Ying!"

"Jiang Ying!"

After the shadow quietly repeated the name, a kind smile appeared on its face, and it bowed deeply to Jiang Yun again, saying, "Thank you for giving me a name, sir!"

Jiang Yun gestured for it to stand up, and at that moment, the many shadows that had been surrounded by Jiang Yun’s Demon Sealing Seal also approached.

They just witnessed the whole process of Jiang Yun helping Jiang Ying awaken, so now seeing their companion change appearance, they couldn’t help but be very curious.

However, as Jiang Ying frowned and gave a cold snort, those shadows immediately dispersed again in an instant, staying far away and not daring to come closer.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Yun knew that his previous speculation was correct.

Jiang Ying was now a demon, although lacking in cultivation, but among its kind, it was the most powerful, thus is considered superior.

Looking at Jiang Ying, Jiang Yun was very satisfied and relieved.

Strictly speaking, Jiang Ying was a new life created by him, giving him a feeling similar to being a new father.

"Now that you are a demon, you can start cultivating, so I will teach you all the knowledge I have gained."

"You may not understand now, but you have plenty of time here to slowly ponder over it, and you will eventually comprehend."

Therefore, besides The Human Tao techniques, Jiang Yun imparted all the techniques and knowledge he had mastered, including Demon Refiner knowledge, as well as everything he had seen and heard along his journey, to Jiang Ying without holding back.

After finishing everything, Jiang Yun suddenly hit his head hard and made a bitter smile.

Because he remembered he had forgotten something, since this is the body of the Shadow Spirit Realm Beast, there was no Sun and Moon Essence for Jiang Ying to cultivate.

Before he could think of a solution, Jiang Ying took a deep breath.

He saw several shadows around, which were too scared to approach, being instantly sucked in and rushed into its mouth.

As these shadows entered, the aura emanating from Jiang Ying suddenly began to rise.

In an instant, he had entered the Meridians Unclogged Realm!
